This festival is unique because of its content, location and venues. It is a must for the festival goer’s calendar. All venues in Portlaoise are within a 3 minute walk of each other; Top Irish Comedians who fill Vicar Street on a regular basis will grace some venues which are a little more…cosy! Over the course of the festival you'll be lucky enough to catch performances by Jason Byrne, PJ Gallagher, Neil Delamere, Andrew Maxwell, Barry Murphy, Maeve Higgins and, honestly, just about every other top comedian in the country. The festival takes place between the 22nd and 26th of October and be sure to book well in advance as these shows WILL sell out!
